Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Chemical Properties]
Ethyl 4-phenylbutyrate has a sweet, fruity, plum-like odor and cooked plum–prune taste. | [Uses]
Benzenebutanoic Acid Ethyl Ester is used in the synthesis of thiazolium salts with potent antimalarial activity. Also used in the preparation of novel lactate dehydrogenase A inhibitors. This compound is suitable for lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) related research. | [Application]
Ethyl-4-phenylbutanoate is probably used in flavors only. It imparts at a very low concentrations a certain amount of “natural” body and richness to many berries and other fruit flavours. The concentration used in such flavors is equivalent to about 0.06 to 1 ppm in the finished products. | [Definition]
ChEBI: Ethyl 4-phenylbutanoate is a fatty acid ester. | [Preparation]
By esterification of ethanol with γ-phenylbutyric acid obtained by Grignard reaction from γ-bromopropylbenzene. | [Synthesis Reference(s)]
